Priority of equilibrium: reactivity of unusual group 4 metallocene complexes is best explained by the equilibrium and only additionally by the mesomerism/valence tautomerism. The equilibrium predominates the empirically found experimental results.

New ligand platforms of the type p- or m-Ph{-CR(3,6-tBu2Flu)(Cp)}2 (para-, R = Me (2a), H (2b); meta-, R = Me (2c)) were synthesized via nucleophilic addition of the 3,6-tBu2-fluorenyl-anion onto the parent phenylene-bridged difulvenes (1a‒c). The corresponding discrete homodinuclear zirconium and hafnium bis(dichloro ansa-metallocene) complexes, Ph[{-CR(3,6-tBu2Flu)(Cp)}MCl2]2 (p-, R = Me (3a-Zr2, 3a-Hf2), R = H (3b-Zr2); m-, R = Me (3c-Zr2) were prepared by salt metathesis reactions. An attempt to generate in situ a heterodinuclear complex 3a-Zr-Hf was also undertaken. For the first time, Atmospheric Pressure PhotoIonization (APPI) mass-spectrometric data were obtained for all dinuclear compounds and found to be in excellent agreement with the simulated ones. Preliminary studies on the catalytic performances of these dinuclear complexes, upon activation with MAO, in ethylene homopolymerization and ethylene/1-hexene copolymerization revealed a few differences as compared to those of the monometallic analogues. In particular, slightly lower molecular weights and greater formation of short methyl and ethyl branches were obtained with the dinuclear systems.

Emphasis is given to redox, photophysical, and photochemical properties of homologous bent metallocenes of group 4 transition metals. Comparative analysis of a variety of electron-transfer induced transformations and ligand-to-metal charge-transfer excited states is performed for bent metallocene complexes upon systematic variation of the identity of the metal ion (Ti, Zr or Hf), ancillary π- and monodentate σ- (Cl, Me) ligands. For such organometallic π-complexes, linear correlations exist between energies of optical and redox HOMO-to-LUMO electron transitions. It is suggested that combination of spectroscopic and electrochemical techniques provides important diagnostics to determine "ionisation potential" and "electron affinity" in solution (relative energies of frontier molecular orbitals obtained as redox potentials) and the energy gap in metallocene complexes. Some of earlier instructive cases of direct relationship between optical transition energies and differences in redox potentials revealed for inorganic and coordination compounds are discussed.
